Here’s a video on my first time riding Busways R1 bus!
The 545 is now operated by Busways R1 due to driver shortages at Ryde depot.
Blacktown depot has 20 Volvo B7RLE Volgren Optimus in their fleet and what makes these bus different is the seat covers where the exSTA Buses has the fabric seating cover while Busways R1 buses has the blue leather seats covers.
